Re: [Nant-users] VBDoc and Source Files

Alejandro, I'm not familiar with VBDoc but from your description its a commandline tool. Writing a wrapper task for this shouldn't be too difficult. Deriving a task class from ExternalProgramBase gets you most of what you need for free. Take a look at ResgenTask.cs or DelaySignTask.cs in \src\N

Based on the environment, I think the answer is yes.  But I think even with the NAnt approach, if you're using services, you have to shut them down and start them up.  This isn't a good question for me because I'm just entering the scene.   Janathan - can you explain what you mean by a shadow copy?

Eric,   I have been working with a somewhat complex deployment system so could provide many tidbits if asked the right questions.  Normally, you should simply be able to deploy a web project by copying all the pages (as?x) and the dlls from the bin\ folder of the project to your destination
